About
The golf course at Mid Pines Golf Resort, a Donald Ross design, opened in 1921. The course is set in rolling, wooded terrain, with bermudagrass fairways and bentgrass greens.
If you’re a fan of Donald Ross layouts and you enjoy a more traditional course, you’ll really enjoy Mid Pines. And make sure you visit the locker room one of the oldest, most traditional and untouched in the area; it’s like stepping back into the 1920s.
The course is characterized by excellent conditioning, plenty of room for your tee shots and difficult greens. This is a classic must-play for the traditionalist golfer.

Mid Pines Golf Club: A Donald Ross revival in Southern Pines
Much like the celebrated U.S. Open host down the road, Mid Pines has returned to its Donald Ross roots after a recent restoration. This original Ross routing dating to 1921 reopened in August, 2013, after a restoration project by architect Kyle Franz, who used aerial photos from the Tuft Archives as a blueprint to uncover sandy native areas lining in the fairways that had been lost over the years. All the rough has been mowed away, resulting in wide fairways.
Shrunken greens, now covered in Bermuda grass, expanded by 20 to 25 percent to bring back their original shapes. Bunkers were redone or removed. Subtleties were recaptured. A tall pine tree was removed from the seventh hole to follow a Ross creed that trees shouldn’t be a significant hazard.
The graceful Georgian-style Inn still frames the final green. Some like Pine Needles across the street better. I'll take the new Mid Pines every time.
